But lawyering up is not wise of her, at all. Who gave her that suggestion?

The money she is going to spend on the lawyers, is it not wise to "dash" Zlatan (behind the scene) in exchange of him clearing the cyberspace on her behalf, and also serving as an assurance of better deals with him in subsequent collaborations? Such move would have doubled her credibility and also increase her influence positively in the entertainment industry ahead of future projects. Who is advising her?

Like I said before she's not a serious artiste, she's not even an artiste! Furthemore, the way pako pikin lime you and I dey reason things, rich man pikin no fit reason that way, for example I know a rich girl that spent 5000 dollars on an item not worth up to 200 dollars because it has sentimental value to her, when it comes to reputation and show of force, rich people fit spend millions to clear their name o....Don't dull

When I was 6 my mother left me with grandparents and traveled abroad, I felt alone and depressed most times, thought life was about to end. When I was 15, a drastic change in quality of life meant I was depressed and often didn't see a way forward. When I was 20, felt pressured by school exams and grades, felt like jumping into a river. When I was 24 I was betrayed by love and just basically gave up for a year. Imagine if the 6 year old me met the 15 year old me, imagine if the 15 year old me met the 20 or 24 year old me and now imagine if the 20 or 24 year old me met the me of the past 5-7 years who basically has achieved 80% of his dreams. The point is simple, no situation is worth taking your own life, there is always someone worse off than you, the pain, the hurt, the depression is only a state of mind, find something bigger than yourself and let it inspire you to LIVE, let it inspire you to OVERCOME! If you gave up now, you'll only be disappointing the better, older you who made it despite all the obstacles!

I don't think there was any written agreement on how much Zlatan was to be paid as they were pals and he thought she would settle him since she's a billionaire daughter and the song was a hit. His mistake was not stating in clear terms how much he wants to be paid for the feature. By now he must have learnt his lesson never to mix business with friendship. Cuppy too should have been reasonable enough to compensate her close pal for being there for her more than once. Why would she even choose not to pay someone for services rendered to her because they're pals? That's all shades of wrong.

It depends on the point of view, Cuppy is not an artiste, despite her attempt she won't be taken seriously. Zlatan on the other hand has a better path. Cuppy could have seen it as a friend helping another friend and not an actual business arrangement. The things that we wey our eyes shook dey take seriously, all these wealthy kids don't see it as such. I can't call something wrong if I don't know the dynamics. For example a boyfriend helps his girl to pass exams, upkeeps etc but the relationship didn't work out, such a guy might feel betrayed but in reality the girl does not owe him a shin shin! I think both Zlatan and Cuppy are very unprofessional and this issue should have been handled by their managers with written contract, friendship no dey business, abeg pay me my money

dominique:
There can't be breeches in a contractual agreement when there was no contractual agreement in the first place. The question she should answer is, did she did she not pay Zlatan for all the work he did for her music and charity event? She left that part out and wants to use big Grammer to defend herself. She should sha pay the lawyer else that one too will come online to drag her

On the same train of thought, were expectations clearly defined? If the service was done as part of friendship, should she be held liable? I can't imagine a street boy like Zlatan not securing the bag first before performing unless na friendship/lover levels? If there's no verbal or written contract, I fail to see why she needs to defend herself, billionaires don't do sentiments!

Grandmeister:
Even the most advanced countries police hardly prevent crime, they show up when the crime has been committed. They might catch the criminal after the act or neutralize him/her during the act but the fact is that they arrive when crime has been committed or being committed. So in the case of someone wanting to shoot another dead, unless there’s a policeman within the perimeter, the shooter(s) will likely succeed. Whether they are caught or not is what differentiates a competent police unit from an incompetent one.

The most advanced countries do prevent certain crimes, for example an assassination attempt or domestic terrorist, they can get tips from informants, video spying and tapping of mobile phones etc, this helps to prevent or foil about 10-30% of these types of crimes. The problem with 9ja is we have zero security intelligence, our cows have better trackers than the human population.

Has anyone noticed that stories like this are never heard of abroad? I mean with the level of genetic testing that goes on abroad surely we should have heard cases of wrong diagnosis when it comes to genotypes, makes you wonder the level of fuckery that goes on in 9ja. Medical quacks diagnosing quack patients equals quack results. 7 genotype test for wetin? Surely she knows something the OP does not

Ellasure:
Is it because covid-19 is real you are carrying this story, shame on you the writer and editor. Kindly tell us more about the pre existing sickness of the CP of police. There is covid-19 yes cz but it trives better on pre existing sickness in the body of the invectee.

You don't need to terrorise the populace with covid-19 covid-19 which we know is more medical politics than the actual sickness.

It's just like HIV, it does not kill by itself it only weakens your immune system to the point of even a common cold or cough can finish you, this is when it becomes AIDS. 90% of Nigerians suffer from one ailment or another but because it is dormant, most of us will never know, a catalyst like Covid can activate it especially if you are afraid of medical checkups and rely on agbo as your only remedy

Ryocaj:
Rap is Rap.. nothing like battle rapper.. if u get challenged or dissed by a fellow rapper u will have to respond.. Blaqbonez had to go to BRL to face Holyfield after being called out so many times..
you comparing Modenine to Olamide shows u don't know rap.. U r listing best rappers u r calling out Olamide n Phyno.. They didn't get the large percentage of their success through rapping.. they switched to singing n lamba.. that's what Nigerians want not actual rap.. MI, SDC, Vector, Ill Bliss, AQ, Modenine, Ice Prince, Jagz.. never switched.. they stood true to d game n made it with it.. If Nasty C n d likes were Nigerians they wouldn't be that successful coz Nigerians don't know rap.. If Modenine n d likes were from South Africa or somewhere else.. they would be far more successful..

Excuses, excuses! A rapper that cannot evolve is that one a rapper? Rap has evolved, ehat message are you passing? Does your rap uplift people? Is it memorable, catchy? I don't know how many times I have to repeat myself, what's the point of your flows if 90% of your fans can't remember your lyrics after a decade? Rap has evolved and the sooner you comprehend this the better! Gone are the days of just spitting vibes and rhymes, gone are the days of hardcore rapping without storytelling or adding flavor, name a mode 9 track that the average Nigerian can resonate with? In the local rap game this guy is a legend but in the grand scheme of things, nobody remebers his ass! This thread is super old, I hate repeating myself over and over to people stuck in the 20th century!

Na Dango F*ck up! Wetin concern Billionaire with hoodrat? She took photos, she get tea and she wan gist, story for the gods. Danny boy you are not married, as an eligible bachelor you can smash and fire the entire female population if you like, nobody can hold you. Stop acting like the Europeans and Americans, you are an African Billionaire, you reign supreme, tell the girl make she go hug transformer, find 2 or 3 of her sexy female friends and smash them too, life no get photocopy...enjoy my nigga!

Olam09:
Since they already announced him as the new coach i already know Chelsea is going to ruin down. Why would you sell thiago Silva and kante? I pray we go relegation this season so that i can find another better team join. And for now ain't watching any Chelsea game till further notice!

Not everything you read online is true, Tuchel that was planning on bringing Kante to PSG now all of a sudden wants to get rid of Kante? Come on, if the news is not from Matt Law or Fabricio R., don't believe it!

In life one must choose his or her battles wisely! You don't have to be a good cook but a decent one, it has less to do with the food and more to do with your upbringing. A mother's role is very essential, if your mom never taught you how to cook, how do you plan on teaching your kids? If she never bothered teaching you how to cook, one wonders what else she forgot to teach you?

Now we have exceptions such as those filthy rich, those men who just don't care and the ones wey dey wash pant, for these type of men, a woman that knows how to cook is not needed. So in this life, I repeat choose your battle/partner wisely!

Adedibu , he said , looked at him and barked an order STAND UP! He stood up. “SIT DOWN!” He sat down. Adedibu then said “and you claim not to be educated. Whatever is left we shall add it unto you”.

OMO.......9JA POLITICS NO GET RIVAL.....See training

Wahala be like rotten tomato Children calm down, if you dissolve a 3 year relationship because of tomato, what will you do when your wife puts too much pepper in your stew or builds a house without telling you Better choose your battles wisely, women get 50 shades of craze, how many you wan cure?

Good riddance....Lamp is a legend, an icon but his managerial tactics is not for players like Werner, Kai or even Ziyech. We don't have a Drogba, why the heck are we crossing? Losing against big teams is forgivable but losing or drawing against mediocre teams is blasphemy.....Goodluck legend, thanks but no thanks!

Government that continues to give money to terrorists be it Herdsmen, Boko, MEND etc, will continue to be extorted by new and/or existing terrorists. Instead make you use the money buy correct weapons and bombers, you would rather bankrupt the nation. Yardua, Jonathan, Buhari, I see no difference.....The last sane leader Nigeria had was Abacha...Hate him or love him but under Abacha, all these miscreants behaved themselves, you bomb pipeline, Abacha bombs you, you kidnap people or rob them, Abacha sends military and mopol to finish you! Citizens were 1000% safer when compared to now, who born Boko make them kidnap school children, when they know the military shows no mercy, let's get rid of these pot belly faux democrats and restore discipline to 9ja! Our military is a joke, our police is crippled, even Amotekun is impotent.....Nigeria has now turned into a country where one idiot forms a group and starts behaving like Van Dame.

Ogbeni mind your business, you just discovered that your dad is batman and you want to expose him to the world, which kind pikin be dis?

Delicate issue but what can be done? As a parent this is one of the worst scenarios you can ever imagine for your child, this one even better siblings yaapa, what opf those that are the only child? I think we mut all look at the bigger picture, if we accept that we can't create or take life without the will of God then surely in situations like this all we can do is drink cold beer/wine and say Lord let thy will be done! Easier said than done tho, so I understand those who would rather vex and throw away the child, in the end each child must carry his or her own cross but it still hurts!

Rodwave:
The problem with you Nigerians is talking without reasoning. Where you there during the judicial process? How did you know that those things you said were not argued and considered? You are part of the the rotten system.

Don't be delusional, look at the man's pic and tell me he had a good lawyer on his side! Look at the judgment and tell me it sounds reasonable! I know you're used to suffering and smiling but in sane societies, this judgment would be thrown out at appeal instantly, don't come here supporting rubbish!

frog12:
even in america, they jail them

Nigga stop lying!

You jail someone 2 years and still expect him to pay back the money he was kjailed for? What a stupid judge! If not that Nigeria is a useless country, money was transferred by error to his account, was the victim forced or hacked? The victim admitted making the error, that should be between the victim and the bank! When was the guy notified? A day, a week or months after? A credible lawyer could argue that due notice was not given. WHY MUST WE MAKE EVERYTHING SO DIFFICULT IN THIS COUNTRY FOR THE LESS PRIVILEDGE? This looks more like a civil case than a criminal one, pay back the money or go to jail, not go to jail and pay back the money. I can bet anything that if this happened to someone with connections, the judgment would have been completely different! Goes to show that even our judiciary system is poo!

plaindealer:
If the penalty for going above speed limit or not wearing seat belt is impounding and losing your car, then so be it, it's about the law, not about your feelings or opinion.

Obey the law.

Can you show me where the penalty for driving one way in Lagos is forfeiture of your vehicle? Yes vehicle can be impounded but you are usually given a chance to bail them out by paying a fine or going to court and satisfyig the conditions of the court. No governor can come out and unilaterally issue a decree to start impounding and selling assets, its unconstitutional!

seunmsg:
Go and educate yourself properly and stop taking rubbish. Nobody is going to sell your car for not using a seatbelt. Offenses varies and penalties varies. If you drive against traffic, your car would be impounded and sold off. In other countries, such cars are completely crushed.

You're speaking jargon! I've lived in the USA for over a decade now and your cars are not crushed or auctioned unless you failed to show up to court and pay your fine or serve your sentence. Driving one way, driving without license, driving without seatbelts are all considered misdemeanors and before your property can be sold, there are other remedies proferred....Stop spewing jargon!

seunmsg:
There is nothing sensible in the message. If you break traffic law in Lagos, you will face the consequences. There is no two ways about it.

Next time you fail to put on your seatbelt or drove above the speed limit, let the government take your vehicle and sell it off since we are all lunatics in this country!

Please it's a new year, let's stop all these religious/spiritual propaganda. We all know with humans errors are bound to exist especially in the medical field. Who confirmed her initial genotype? Did she get a second or third opinion? Who confirmed the latest result? Was that also confirmed by another facility? We all love a good miracle but let's not start spreading tales by the moonlight!

mondayaudu:
You are right but Samsung need to work more on security and parts. Thief’s are scared of stealing iphone with iCloud. Parts is another thing that Samsung lacks. How can I buy a new Samsung phone of 300k but when it has screen problem, I have to pay almost 75% of the worth to buy new screen.

How much is iPhone screen? Did you know that majority iPhone screens are produced by Samsung?

Medicine after death, watch as the impeachment dies a natural death in the senate long after trump has vacated office. Vanity upon vanity but I guess Trump can only blame himself, nobody goes against the estbalishment and liberal moguls without losing almost everything!

Cowards often can't see beyond their predicaments, they are so self absorbed that they can't possibly phantom a greater cause or the bigger picture. It's a narcissist complex, why me? Why not me? Who did I offend? Why are things like this? How come?

Depression is real but do you know what is even more real, psychology! You see someone depressed because they have no shoes, show them someone without legs. You see someone depressed because of barreness, show them someone with wayward children hooked on drugs, violence etc. See someone depressed because of poverty, show them someone with all the money in the world but dying of stage 4 cancer or Aids.

Life is all about perspective, this young man acknowledged his mom but that was not enough to stop him, he alluded to part of the fault coming from his dad but he chose to be exactly like his dad and inflict pain on his loving mom. Forget religious angle, forget societal angle, this young man just couldn't see beyond his predicament, to him the rest of the world can go screw itself. For people like this, even the best medical and mental help won't be enough....You can't save someone that has no desire to be saved, like he said, HE SIMPLY DID NOT LOVE HIMSELF......R.I.P

The truth is simple, back then our mothers suffered lots of injustices. Back then our women had no say and many had to abndon anything called career or goals just for the family. Back then as a girl, you only hope for two things, marriage and children.

Nowadays women want more! Civilization has shown them that they too can be presidents, CEOs and so on. Women have also seen the calamity that comes from depending on men for their continued existence. Gone are the days of of the king regins supreme, nowadays it is all hail the king as long as the queen is pleased!

In conclusion, adapting is key! Men who do not adapt will end up divorcing more than once same goes for women, true wisdom comes when you realize marriage is very similar to a business contract, everyone must play their part or the contract is null and void!

thatigboman:
she said marriage. Are u twisting what she said?

Just trying to give her benefit of doubt, maybe she was drunk

Perhaps she meant same sex relationships not marriage. Who officiated the wedding, which registry? What nikkai or church wedding?

DarkJeddi:
If you have a problem with their terms and conditions ab initio or if it in any way contradicts or go foul of the law then you have a right to sue them and have said regulations trashed..
But if you agree to their terms and conditions AND clearly run foul of the said regulations,then it is within their right to ban you..
And you can't plead freedom of expression..

True! The right to sue will always exist because terms and conditions can be interpreted differently depending on which legal system and representation you use. For example, in business law, we were taught that if a company fail to apply their terms and conditions equally without favoritism, a case can be brought against the company. If Trump really wanted to pursue this issue, all he has to do is show that Twitter failed to impose the same punishment on a number of acounts and show a pattern of favoritism or discrimination. Such a case has been brought against Facebook in the past and they were made to pay financial compensation.

DarkJeddi:
If you sign up for any Social Media,you agreed to their terms and conditions,not the US Constitution..
You can't sue them for breach of your freedom of speech..
As Nairaland dey now,if they ban you,can you take them to court?

You're wrong! The same principle that applies to physical businesses applies to social media companies as well. I'm an auditor and also live in the USA. We have over 5 different laws and regulations that these companies must abide by when it comes to bill of rights/the Constitution. Agrreeing with terms and conditions does not give them unilateral rights to behave like God!
